Even if you don&#39;t make the grade you want, you can rest easy(sorta) knowing that you totally DESERVE a great grade. I can&#39;t believe he is still teaching. I hate tenured profs when they suck. Booo. Yeah, he is obesessed with LA and Venice Beach. I think I had him for a Intro to Drawing class, not painting. LOL, I never made it that far.Sarahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02543883212378785104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-77509432362569316432009-11-29T21:09:58.368-05:002009-11-29T21:09:58.368-05:00HA I had a feeling it was him. He seems to be the ...HA I had a feeling it was him. He seems to be the exact same. I know a lot of upper students seem to enjoy greeting him in the halls - but, everyone in my class [Intro to Painting] despises him. He&#39;s very enthusiastic, but you can&#39;t expect everyone to want to participate in weird shit like dancing around. <br /><br />We haven&#39;t been on any field trips like that - but it does sound like something he would want to do! He&#39;s always talking about how much he loves the culture of LA and whatnot. It&#39;s even in his paintings. <br /><br />I&#39;m trying my BEST to not hate on him right now. Trying to see the good in him. <br /><br /><br />Hahaha what are the chances???SaraHaasehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16044289428744112412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-14984084987232062602009-11-28T22:40:07.525-05:002009-11-28T22:40:07.525-05:00Actually, I was talking about Krumpak. LOL, weird,...Actually, I was talking about Krumpak. LOL, weird, huh? He KILLED ME. UGH. Dude, I remember my first semester, I was all shy and he had us dance on the tables so others could draw us and I straight up refused and he started mocking me and declaring I was boring and no fun and no guy would want to take me out and other weird things. Very strange. Besides that, I could never please him artistically. I would always choose subjects that he hated and he always chose subjects I hated and we never saw eye to eye. Alas, it worked out for the best, but he was an awful teacher to have the first semester. We had about two or three hard projects a week.<br /><br />Has he changed, lol? Have you guys gone down to downtown LA to China town? That was really fun. :)Sarahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02543883212378785104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-40090413990427595132009-11-28T20:09:12.335-05:002009-11-28T20:09:12.335-05:00O man!

[Did you have the same professor for a couple of semesters those first two years?] I think I&#39;m kind of a junior right now - I&#39;m at 70+ units I&#39;m guessing. I really should be more on top of this. The two art teachers I have right now are Krumpak and Michelon. Michelon is awesome - and Krumpak seems to be someone you either love or hate. And I&#39;m really not getting along with him right now - and it IS stressing me out to death. Next semester, I&#39;ll have Norcliffe, McClure, Song, and Velvic - might any of those be that evil teacher?SaraHaasehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16044289428744112412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-18226507444367178602009-11-25T07:55:09.920-05:002009-11-25T07:55:09.920-05:00I had a REALLY crappy teacher that burnt me out th...I had a REALLY crappy teacher that burnt me out the first two years I was there. We had several major projects each week and I couldn&#39;t hack it. I became so unhappy doing art for my teachers. That, and the realization that if I wanted to survive in the art program, I needed to eat, breath and sleep art for the rest of my college career(when you are on the six-year-plan like I was, that is a LONG time). That, and I was lazy, lol. I couldn&#39;t hack it.<br /><br />What teachers do you have? Are you taking sophmore or entry level classes? I wonder if my crappy teacher is still there, lol.<br /><br />I still love CSULB,though.
